well, i just bought a used dell for my new DNS, mail, and web server. they snickered when i asked if they would pre-install freebsd... so it's up to me. this dell was running losedows, vista, so i assume it has some kind of sound card. it has "256MN ATI X1300 PRo" video. is this enough to power my new [year-old] 20.1" widescreen display? 80GB drive, so it is only a server. as well as a backup for critical audio and jpg files and stuff i don't want to lose. so: what is the URL to download the 8.0-PRE freebsd....? true, i haven't had to install freebsd by-hand from CDROMs for years, but if remory servs, more than one CD is required. i DO have blank DVD-RW discs ... if we've got a DVD distro somewhere. thanks in advance, gents, gary PS: the "breakthru" is that i'll be doing everything with my one hand/arm. -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 7.31a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php
